They call her Trouble. Locked behind prison walls, A'Leiaa Onyxx Creed rules a place that was built to break people like her-but she never learned how to break. In here, she's feared. Outside, she was something else entirely. But every name has a beginning... and every empire has a fall. Before the bars. Before the silence. Before she became Trouble. There was a life she doesn't talk about anymore. And someone from that life still lingers in her past... a name she refuses to say out loud, but never forgets. And a story that made sure she never looked at love the same again.

"Cuz if it's easy, it won't be amazing, if it's amazing it won't be easy, if it's worth it, you won't give up, if you give up, you're not worthy..." *** For Zubaida the rules have always been simple. Playing it safe when it came to her fragile heart had always been the best and only option. Risking it all and going to heights for love had never been her known forte, not after facing the brutal reality of what the other side of love could be like at least. Fahad on the other hand, still has some demons of his to fight. Four years ago, he'd lost the one person that meant the world to him and it had been it for him since then. No one could get through the walls he'd built around him eversince. Life pulls these two towards each other and suddenly love comes crashing down the walls of these two fractured souls, and the thin line between love and friendship couldn't seem more blurry. Mix this up with the web of jealousy, lies, greed, envy, and hidden secrets that lie around them and it's one hell of a wild emotional rollercoaster full of obstacles, pain, crises and hardships, but amidst it all is a journey of friendship, love, growth, and life changing lessons. They say the best things in life happen when unexpected, but at the same time, the most beautiful roses are those that come with the sharpest thorns. How much would you let yourself go through for the sake of the one person that means everything to you, and how far could you go for the sake of love? *** "...cuz truth is, everyone's gonna hurt you, you just gotta find those who are worth suffering for."

A collection of poems about love. Love not being between just two people but also love for humanity and self.

[Poem] They say black is the absence of colors, but I say black is beautiful even without all the colors. To be born with a race is not what we decide on and it is not something we should worry about. However, in this world we live in, it is worrisome to many - yellow, white, orange and black. Love is all we need for the entire human race. Love is what we should be spreading instead of negativity. Black lives matter, but it is best if all lives matter. -------------------------------------- This is a poem to empower not only the Black Community but also everyone in the world specifically in this virtual world during this pandemic. Let us give love and not hate. Words and terms used are not intended as racism.
